June 22,2011 C-1982-057/Seneca H-W Mine SLB <br /> flowing out of the drainpipe and the road ditch on the north side was dry. <br /> Repairs to the outfall of Culvert ME-1,required by Step 4 to abate NOV CV 2011-001 were complete. The <br /> operator had regraded the outfall and installed rip rap(8-10")at the outlet and approximately 30' beyond, where <br /> Hubberson Gulch makes a 90 degree turn. The rip rap at the channel bend is about 18-24"in diameter. <br /> An excavator and dozer were working on reclaiming portions of the Mine Entrance Haul Road and Haul Road A <br /> up to the intersection with Haul Road J. The graded areas blend well with the surrounding topography. Topsoil <br /> was being replaced by scrapers and a dozer. Straw wattles had been placed on the reclaimed outslopes along 006 <br /> Gulch to prevent transport of sediment into the creek. <br /> Ponds 005 and 006 were discharging clear water. The October 19, 2010 and June 6,2011 inspection reports <br /> included comments on the adequacy of the rip rap in the emergency spillway of Pond 005. Further review of the <br /> approved design indicates that rip rap in the channel should be 1.5"on average; the material in the spillway is <br /> approximately 2-3"in diameter, so no further action will be necessary. <br /> DOCUMENTS RECEIVED N�y111, <br /> OTHER(SPECIFY) <br /> Number of Partial Inspection this Fiscal Year: 11 <br /> Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 4 <br /> Page 3 of 8 <br />
